[Verse 1] Dancing lights On the northern sky Like memories pa**ing by Fading by the shoreline We were young Probably six years old Just my sister in the cold Chills pa**ing through my bones [Chorus] These days are numbered So don't waste them on slumber Yeah, these days are numbered So don't waste them on slumber [Verse 2] Now short are my days So I shifted my gaze To the lights of the city Smokestacks never looked so pretty
I've been climbing high mountains Been carrying a load Many live to the oil Though I know I'm not alone [Pre-Chorus] Steel city I'm coming home [Chorus] These days are numbered So don't waste them on slumber Yeah, these days are numbered So don't waste them on slumber These days are numbered So don't waste them on slumber These days are numbered So don't waste them on slumber [Outro] These days are numbered
